announcing mbpfan-v1.7.0
2014-06-23
The last update to mbpfan happened almost 1 year and a half ago. Besides having little time to invest in this project, I had the issue of not possessing a Macbook anymore. One week ago, my faculty assigned me a shiny new Macbook Pro 11,1. Just in time, because the new Linux 3.1.5 kernel was breaking mbpfan (or better, mbpfan was not suited for the new kernel). It was time to update the project.
Mbpfan has now reached v1.7.0, which collects the unannounced improvements of the never born v1.6.0 and some new improvements, here summarized:
With respect to v1.5.0, the following was improved:
-
support for
coretemp
and
applesmc
when built into kernel instead as modules (#27)
-
settings are reload if
SIGHUP
is detected (#4)
-
new tests when
make tests
(#28)
-
fixed bug that eventually caused defunct processes (#37) [thank you @johnf]
-
Support for Macbook pro 7,1, 9,2, and 11,2 and Macbook Air 5,2 has been verified (see README.md for the full list)
-
Support for linux-3.15.X and later [#38]
